Colorado Wildcats

They went 1–2 in those games, with the lone victory at home: The Wildcats compiled a 9–5 record in their only year of play.

They struggled financially, even folding for two weeks before a new owner, Tom Shafer, bailed the team out and allowed them to finish the season.

The Bayou Beast did just that by winning 67–61, slamming Colorado wide receiver Matt Cinquanta to the turf as he made a miraculous catch just one yard shy of the endzone on the game's last play.

When Green Bay Bombers and Madison Mad Dogs owner Keary Ecklund announced his intentions to start a new league in 1999, Indoor Football League (IFL), Shafer stood by him and proclaimed the Wildcats would be a part of the IFL.

Although the Colorado Wildcats ceased operations, much of the roster and staff transitioned to become the Rocky Mountain Thunder, competing in the newly-formed Indoor Professional Football League (IPFL) for the 1999 season.
